what to say

I can safely say I am throughly enjoying my time in Norwich/abroad. I was quite homesick the first couple of days and weeks, mostly because I couldn't believe I was actually going to live in a foreign country for three months; away from my parents, away from my friends, away from what was familiar. I lost my wallet as well during the first week so that sort of exacerbated things.

Now however, I'm having so much fun. I love my five day weekends. I love being able to travel with Caitlin and Bonnie on the weekends. I love hanging out with my flatmates and Caitlin's flatmates (hahaha). I love poking fun at my English flatmates for their strange eating habits (mayo and pizza?! Really? HAHA) and I (sort of) like it when they poke fun of my American accent (to-may-to vs to-mah-to or how Mary, the cleaner, makes fun of me when I say the word "sandwiiiiich" vs her "saaandwich"). I love our flat dinners. I love pizza and card night with flats 4 and 5. Life is fabulous right now.

Caitlin, Bonnie, Bo, Margot and I are going to Scotland next weekend and I'm so excited. We're going to Glasgow and Edinburgh and I absolutely can't wait to visit the birth place of quite possibly my favorite boy wizard, HARRY POTTER! I want to visit Elephant House where JK Rowling started writing Harry Potter. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited.
